Scumbria - Re: " that they don't have to pay Intel the obscene premium on Xeon CPUs. "

Intel's XEON premiums are very high.

The premium on Compaq servers is MUCH MUCH HIGHER! That's what makes Intel's Xeon such a good value.

And that is precisely why Compaq, the owner and maker of Alpha, will be a big vendor of Intel-based/Xeon servers and workstations.
